Saturday morning (really, really, really early) we headed off to Kentucky on the start of a two week vacation to see family before we all head to Korea for two to three years.
We got off to a rocky start - our 12:50 AM flight was delayed until 2:40 AM and then we weren't sure that we would all be able to get on the same flight out of Atlanta - all this on top of having to replace the transmission in David's pickup just before we are planning to sell it (it went out on our way home from dropping off my vehicle in San Diego), and then not having it ready before we had to drive 3 hours to Phoenix (so we had the extra expense of a rental car). The troubles on our trip were just the icing on the cake of a really crummy week!
But, it began to improve once we got to Atlanta (except for the cold coffee and cinnamon rolls), when someone was kind enough to get all of us on the same flight to Lexington, and even got us all in the same (bulkhead, yeah!) row. We got to talking to the flight attendant on the way there and she offered the kids a chance to go up to the flight deck (it's no longer a cockpit) and meet the pilots. Tristan declined as he had fallen asleep and was not awake enough to be personable when we landed.
